Carly Simon - My Bonnie Lyrics
My Bonnie lies over the ocean, my Bonnie lies over the sea,My Bonnie lies over the ocean, O bring back my Bonnie to me.[Chorus:]Bring back, bring back, O bring back my Bonnie to me, to me:Bring back, bring back, O bring back my Bonnie to me.O blow ye winds over the ocean,O blow ye winds over the sea.O blow ye winds over the ocean,And bring back my Bonnie to me.[Chorus]Last night as I lay on my pillow,Last night as I lay on my bed,Last night as I lay on my pillow,I dreamed that my Bonnie was dead.[Chorus]The winds have blown over the ocean,The winds have blown over the sea,The winds have blown over the ocean,And brought back my Bonnie to me.[Chorus]My Bonnie leaned over the gas tank,The height of its contents to see,I lit a small match to assist her,O Bring back my Bonnie to me.[Chorus]Last night as I lay on my pillow,Last night as I lay on my bed,I stuck my feet out of the window,In the morning the neighbors were dead.[Chorus]My mother makes beer in the bathtub,My father makes synthetic gin,My sister makes fudge for a quarter,Wouldja believe how the money rolls in?[Chorus]My mother, she drowned in the bathtub,My father, he died from his gin,My sister choked on her chocolate,My stars, what a fix I am in.[Chorus]I tried making beer in the bathtub,I tried making synthetic gin,I tried making fudge for a living,Now look at the shape that I'm in.
